Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone are back with the first song of the much-awaited film Pathaan. The song was released by the film’s team on Monday ever since the song is trending. However, they are facing huge criticism because of the color of Deepika’s Dress. The poster of Deepika Padukone burned in Madhya Pradesh as both the ruling and the opposition have objected to the saffron costume worn by the actor in the song.

Now Swara Bhasker shared a screenshot of a news article that stated the BJP-led government in Madhya Pradesh may ban the release of the new film for showing 'Muslim man groping woman wearing saffron'. The actress wrote, "Miliye humare desh ke sattadhari netaon se. Abhinetriyon ke kapde dekhne se fursat milti, to kya pata kuch kar bhi lete (Meet our country's leaders in power. They may have done some work, had they had some time left after oggling at actor's dresses)."

Earlier Prakash Raj also came in support and he wrote, “Disgusting … How long should we tolerate these ..Colour Blind #AndhBhakts .. #justasking”. He shared another post with the caption, “#Besharam BIGOTS.. So it’s okay when Saffron clad men garland rapists..give hate speech, broker MLAs, a Saffron clad swamiji rapes Minors, But not a DRESS in a film ?? #justasking ….Protesters Burn Effigies Of SRK In Indore. Their Demand: Ban ‘Pathaan’.
